Chapter 17 | She Hates Me
~Kian~
Training sucks today.
I didn't sleep a wink after Nyla kicked me out of her room last night. It's not like I expected her to run into my arms or cuddle with me, but a slap?? And the worst thing is, I wasn't mad at her at all.
Rex had to rub some salt into the wound by telling me I deserved it. He was the asshole who provoked me in the first place. The only person who felt bad in that room was Nyla's baby. She came to my rescue by crying and drawing her mom's attention; saved me from that sharp tongue dishing out more harsh words.
Sometimes I wonder if finding a mate for a second time was a curse in disguise. Rex wouldn't agree, of course, and he lost his shit when he heard Nyla say the words, 'Reject me.'
If I think about it hard enough, she has a good point.
"Our mate stays, and we aren't rejecting her," Rex said with a finality in his voice. "Pay attention to the kid in front of you. He's going to land anothe

~Nyla~ I had no idea where Kian went to or how he was doing. I asked Rachel, and all she knew was that he went away for some pack affairs, which he usually let Ryder or Finn handle. He probably wanted to stay away from me. Who told him he could decide these things on his own? I suppose he was sulking at me for the slap because he refused to look at me for more than a second when he got back from training. Walking in with that hot sweat-drenched face and looking out of breath, he thought that was the best time to ignore me, while my body was screaming to go close to him, real close, and make up for pushing him away. Ari kept me busy, but that was not enough to push his thoughts away. I did a lot of things to fill my days with things and people. Car shopping with Rachel, a trip to the grocery store with Olivia, and rearranging the garden beds with Ren. Nothing was enough to make me forget him for more than a few seconds. Rachel broug
Alpha Kian and His Captive Mate Chapter 19 | A Switch
~Nyla~ It has been four days that Kian returned from his trip and lay sedated in the bed most of the night. Rex was still not back and the only assurance is from Rachel's words that the pack doctor said he was still alive. As days passed, Kian seemed all right on the surface, but his wolf was in pain. With his dad and Ryder taking charge of things in his absence, I was extremely careful to not wander around in the daytime. I patiently waited for it to be night so I could spend time with him again... for those precious two hours when I could lie next to him until it was time to feed Ari again. He was always sedated at night to heal faster, and his folks left him alone once it was past midnight. Until a few days back, the pack warriors did not guard the buildings because of the enchantments, but now there were guards in every corner to stop intruders since Rex wasn't there to detect them. It's funny how no one ever suspected an insid
Alpha Kian and His Captive Mate Chapter 20 | The Battle Within
~Kian~ It had been raining cats and dogs for the last three days, and Rex and I were restless to go for a run. Even at almost 5 AM, it was still dark and drizzling. I needed this break to forget all the stress we have been carrying around with never-ending meetings and daggers that Nyla threw at me. Rex was always a defiant piece of shit. Now he has become impossible to reason with. He had been giving me grief over the situation with Nyla ever since I planned my trip with Finn. That trip had cost Finn his life. He definitely died because of me and my preoccupation with Nyla's thoughts. Skinwalkers were terrified of the Storm Moon Pack for the last two years and never dared to attack any of us when passing through the White River Forest. They knew how powerful and relentless we were, and a mistake I made changed it all. "Kian, a Rogue!" Finn had pointed to a golden brown wolf cowering in fear and failing to blend in with the surroun
Alpha Kian and His Captive Mate Chapter 21 | Not A Human?
~Kian~ When dad said he could smell a woman on me, I knew for sure it was her and not just a dream. My spitfire of a mate actually kissed me and held onto me when she thought I wouldn't know. My mouth twitched into a grin, thinking about how heavenly those kisses felt. Meanwhile, my dad was grilling me like I was some captive in the dungeons. He was pushing my patience to the farthest limit. To make it worse, my mind was wandering off, and I even thought I caught a whiff of rain and raspberries. It was growing stronger by the minute until Nyla stopped about two feet away from the conference room entrance. What the hell was she thinking? She would have been in so much trouble if someone had caught her sneaking into my room at night. My dad may not be the Alpha of the pack any longer, but he was still Alpha with a stronger sense of smell than Ryder and the others. If not for being swamped with work in my absence, I'm sure he would have traced th
Alpha Kian and His Captive Mate Chapter 22 | Mate From Hell
~Nyla~ Someone was knocking on the door nonstop, ruining my beautiful dream about once upon a time when I was with Maya at my home, happy and carefree. I rubbed the sleep away from my eyes and turned to the window to look outside. What time was it? The treetops formed dark silhouettes against the deep blue skies. I suddenly jumped out of my bed with renewed enthusiasm. Two more days to go for the full moon. "Riley... Wake up!" "Oh Rae, just a second." What was there to wake up so early? I have been grounded for about ten days now, and Kian was gone for almost a week on some pack business again. "Is everything okay?" Rachel was falling asleep while waiting for me to open the door. She said she was supposed to be on the night patrolling duty tonight. "Hell yeah! Talked to my brother just now. He said you can train again!! And we can go shopping in my new car after that." "Whoa! What changed?"
Alpha Kian and His Captive Mate Chapter 23 | The Best Laid Plans
~Nyla~ Beads of sweat trickled down my forehead even after I showered. Pacing back and forth in my room, I waited for Ren to come and tell me what was going on. Unless Adalyn was unconscious, I should be in the dungeons by now. From the look on Kian's face earlier, it didn't seem like she told them what had happened last month. It was so ironic that she returned now, creating many doubts in my mind about tomorrow night. How did she even survive? This was why Maya told me, "Always get their jugular, even when you aren't hungry." I was never a fan of drinking blood, and being in human form and eating delicious meals satiated my hunger thoroughly, leaving no appetite for blood. I should have at least snapped her neck to make sure. All because of Sadie. Walking back to Ari's crib, I wondered how I was going to sneak her out without getting noticed. I knew she got the werewolf gene because I carried her for less than six months
Alpha Kian and His Captive Mate Chapter 24 | Full Moon Night
~Third Person's POV~ It was a late spring night, but there was an unusual chill in the air already. Beta Ryder drove around in circles looking for a parking spot near his mistress's beachfront property. He checked his watch and let out an exasperated sigh. His phone screen lit up, showing a notification from Maria. Rolling through a stop sign, he took a quick peek to see if she had sent him any more sexy pictures of her. Candles and bubble bath. His lips curled up in a smile, thinking about the glorious night that lay ahead. After parking his fancy Hellcat a few blocks away from Maria's place, he pranced on the deserted street under the moonlight, humming a cheery tune. A sudden gust of wind had him stop dead in his tracks. He turned back to face the beach. It was almost midnight, and there wasn't a single creature outdoors for miles. At least that's what he thought when he had stepped out of his car a few minutes back. Then why did he hear a wo
Alpha Kian and His Captive Mate Chapter 25 | My Peculiar Mate
ONE YEAR AGO ~Wyatt~ I have lost all hopes of ever meeting my mate. I turned twenty-five last month and have begun to believe that my mate doesn't exist in this world. My parents have been forcing me to take a chosen mate for years now, but I have this feeling that she would show up the moment I accept someone else. Tonight was one of those full moon nights where my dad has organized a huge ball for all unmated werewolves to find their mates. Invitations were sent months before the event to ensure that almost everyone who turned eighteen by today would plan well ahead. I put on my best party jacket and got that perfect five o'clock shadow going for a few days now. Spraying a decent amount of cologne, I left my room with a fantastic feeling. Tonight might be the night when I finally get to see her. I scanned the ballroom from two floors up and decided to get laid if none of these beautifully dressed women turned out to be the one for me.
